Not only is this partnership beneficial for Youtube. In fact, NPR is looking forward to an enormous shift in viewers count and reach on Youtube. Recently, the SVP of Programming and Audience Development at NPR, Miss Anya Grundmann expressed her excitement about the matter. She has stated: “Following the global success of our Tiny Desk Concerts, we are excited for our podcasts to reach new audiences on YouTube,” she further explained how it will be great that their public service journalism will not be searchable and accessible in ways it has never been before.

Currently, it is owned by Google and is the most searched website online other than Google search. It has a massive audience of more than 2 billion logged-in users monthly. It has the power to enable strong connections between people and communities. Youtube’s reach has often times crossed that of the TV.

Since Youtube runs solely based on content creators, podcasters have also jumped on the band wagon as they will help attract a fan following and develop their brand.
